Designed to appeal to the book lover, the Macmillan Collector's Library is a series of beautifully bound pocket-sized gift editions of much loved classic titles. Bound in real cloth, printed on high quality paper, and featuring ribbon markers and gilt edges, Macmillan Collector's Library are books to love and treasure. My Gothic Heart is selected and introduced by editor and writer Charlie Castelletti.
The word gothic conjures up crumbling castles, passion and unnerving supernatural events. It's a powerful genre and a mood that has influenced writers, artists and designers ever since. This is a gorgeous anthology of extracts from extravagant and dark gothic stories and verse. My Gothic Heart features tantalising extracts from the famous names of gothic writing such as Ann Radcliffe, Bram Stoker, the Bront? sisters and John Keats. It then travels forward to the early twentieth century, finding gothic resonance in the writing of Virginia Woolf, Oscar Wilde and Wilfred Owen. Altogether, it's a powerful mix that cannot fail to stir the emotions.Language:EnglishPublisher:MacMillan Collector's LibraryISBN-13:9781035002610ISBN-10:1035002612UPC:9781035002610Book Category:FictionBook Subcategory:Gothic, ClassicsSize:5.60 x 3.60 x 0.80 inchesWeight:0.2998Product ID:SCJ95SK6NC
